Buccaneers are favored to win in Week 3 matchup vs. Rams

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are currently (-3.5) point favorites against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 3’s opening odds. The over under is set at 44 points with Oddssharks’s simulation having the Bucs win 26.6-11.5.

Now that the Buccaneers have put Sunday’s disappointing loss behind them, the team is focused on preparing to face the Rams at home this week. The Bucs are currently 1-1 this season and are in a three-way tie for first place in the NFC South. Meanwhile, the Rams are also sitting at 1-1 on the season after coming off a 9-3 victory against a very talented Seattle team. Los Angeles bounced back this weekend after being shut out by the San Francisco 49ers 28-0 in Week 1.

I think that Tampa Bay’s loss to the Cardinals will definitely work in their favor this week. After being humiliated on Sunday, I expect the Bucs to walk into this game fired up and ready to redeem themselves. With the game being at Raymond James Stadium, it also makes sense why the Buccaneers are favored in this one. However, the squad must be prepared to face a team that boasts several very talented playmakers.
